"Don't go out. The alarm outside is fake. I suspect something is wrong with 1206!"

This was a message in a small group chat, spoken by the resident of 1204.

Initially, I was a bit annoyed by her earlier comment, but now she kindly reminded me, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for my malicious speculation.

"In that case, it's not safe for you to be alone at home. We're both girls and should help each other. I'll come to you. It's better to have more people for protection."

Looking at her profile picture with a pink bunny head, I felt a moment of warmth in my heart, thinking that there are still many good people in this world.

I was using a fruit machine, so there was a delay in receiving the message. It was sent a few minutes ago, but I just received it now.

Just as I was about to reply to her message, the security door was knocked on.

"Knock-knock-knock—"

I felt a thump in my heart, and an inexplicable fear arose.

Looking at the security door so close to me, I couldn't help but step back.

Wait a minute. Although those people in the chat group spread rumors that many people live in my house, why is the resident of 1204 so certain that I live alone?

As fellow girls, how could she dare to leave her house and come to a stranger's house at a time when a neighbor jumped off a building?

The knocking on the door outside sounded again, as if urging me to open it quickly.

I quickly opened the main chat and quickly checked the group message history in the darkness.

At that moment, I suddenly realized that this person from 1204 had never sent a message in the main chat.

Because there were numerous members in the homeowners' group, many of whom were not identified, there was no time to investigate them one by one.

But I also understood very well that this incident was by no means a coincidence. It seemed more like... a deliberate act!

Thinking of various news about heinous crimes, my palms started to sweat.

The knocking on the door outside had changed from the initial "knock-knock-knock" to "bang-bang-bang".

So, they want to lure me out?

Lure me out, and then what? Kill me, or is there another conspiracy?
